[PATCH] > 256 CPU cpumask build fix - const confusion

[Paul Jackson]

Andrew,

Could you please apply the following patch.  It is needed
to build kernels with > 256 CPUs.

This patch actually went out to you and lkml Nov 4 (to which
you replied requesting a fix) and Nov 5 (fixed as requested).

I am guessing that it has gotten lost in the mists of time by
now, so I am retransmitting.

I have recomputed the patch to go on top of test 11 _plus_
the "rearrange cpumask.h headers" patch (Take 2) sent earlier
today, though either version of the following patch should
apply with or without the header rearrange patch -- modulo
line number offsets.

# This is a BitKeeper generated patch for the following project:

# This patch format is intended for GNU patch command version 2.5 or higher.
# This patch includes the following deltas:

#	include/asm-generic/cpumask_const_value.h	1.1     -> 1.2    
#	include/linux/cpumask.h	1.2     -> 1.3    
#	include/asm-i386/mach-default/mach_apic.h	1.28    -> 1.29

# The following is the BitKeeper ChangeSet Log
# --------------------------------------------
# 03/12/16	pj@xxxxxxx	1.1498
# Patch to build with NR_CPUS > 256.
# 
# It now builds with gcc 2.95.3, as well as gcc 3.3.
# 
# The key additional change (between Nov 4 and 5) was removing
# the cast to (cpumask_const_t) in the mk_cpumask_const() macro,
# for the cpumask_const_value case.  gcc 2.x compilers cannot
# take the address of a cast variable, if both the variable and
# the cast have typedef specified types (not even if the cast
# is to the same type).  The removed cast didn't do anything
# in this case anyway.
# 
# It builds successfully for NR_CPUS in {1, 8, 32, 64, 128,
# 256} for gcc 2.95.3 and 3.3 on i386, and for 3.3.2 on ia64.
# Also builds 512 NR_CPUS on ia64.
# 
# The 512 build on i386 fails due to unrelated reason - an overflow
# of cpu_gdt_table in arch/i386/kernel/head.S.  That failure is not
# addressed in this patch.
# 
# The build fix in mach_apic.h that takes i386 from 128 CPUs to
# 256 will probably never be tested.  For less than 128 CPUs,
# it amounts to the application of the literal no-op macro
# mk_cpumask_const(), so "can't break anything".  If you'd
# rather have this patch without the mach_apic.h change, just ask.
# 
# The individual file comments are:
# 
#   include/linux/cpumask.h
#     Build fails if NR_CPUS > 128 (i386) or > 256 (ia64), with:
#         include/linux/cpumask.h: In function `next_online_cpu':
#         include/linux/cpumask.h:56: structure has no member named `val'
#     Fix - add missing mk_cpumask_const() macro calls.
# 
#   include/asm-i386/mach-default/mach_apic.h
#     Have target_cpus return cpumask_const_t, to match type passed
#     into apic setup routines.  Fixes 3 i386 build errors:
#       incompatible type for argument 1 of `cpu_mask_to_apicid'
# 
#   include/asm-generic/cpumask_const_value.h
#     Dont cast cpumask: gcc 2.95.3 (3.3 ok) fails:
# 	"invalid lvalue in unary `&'"
#     taking address of any variable of typedef type
# 	that's cast to typedef type.
